[hylafax-users] More robust replacement for faxmail with email to fax gateway?



Hi.

I am currently experimenting with setting up the email to fax gateway
simply by setting up a postfix transport and then filtering the stream
through faxmail.

However, I am fairly discouraged by faxmail's truncated abilities to deal
with mime attachments.  In particular, I generally care about faxing
through the attachments and would not care much if the actual message body
were not present in the fax.  However, faxmail appears to only "see"
postfix mime files, and eveyrthing else is truncated.

Have people come up with alternatives?

I am considering setting up a perl filter to catch the incoming stream,
decode the mime attachments, and then convert or send the whole lot
straight through sendfax.

Any other options?

Sunil
